Hi all,
I'm just starting off in the world of freediving and my progress to date has been pretty good with regard to times for dry static. I set a PB the other day of 4.03 which is great for me.
During the hold the contractions in my diapragm started at precisely 1.40, a bit earlier than I was hoping, and continued for the rest of the hold, not changing in frequency or intensity.
I’m looking forward to seeing how my mind and body will learn to cope with the contractions – given plenty of practice will they eventually stop, will they start later during a hold, or will I simply become more accustomed to coping with them?
I'm sure it's different for everybody but I'd love to hear about any advice or experiences other beginners are have, or have had?
Please check out my blog too, address below. I'd welcome comments.
Cheers
Tom
